As i’ve conducted further detailed analysis of this photo I’ve also noticed another startling fact: the descending heights of the three subjects. Further, notice that the first has a tight hat, the second a floppy hat, and you, no hat but a mass of hair. This symbolizes that the first is trying to use height to compensate for lack of hair, the second is trying to use a floppy hat to compensate for a lack of height but wide girth, while the third is just happy with who she is. Which means that to be happy one needs to be 5 foot something and have a good mass of hair. People seem to make life complicated but actually with the right analysis, it is pretty straightforward.
I was trying to figure out what it is about this photo that is so beguiling and now, after deep study and analysis, I’ve got it: there is a performance art going on with the hands: Mr. A has his hands in his pockets, Mr. B wears one glove, and you, the siren, show both hands. In other words you, (the mythical siren, the creater, etc etc) show your hands while the two others (representing envy and sloth) keep their hands concealed. The message is clear: creativity is transparent while sloth and envy are concealed…on the other hand, I have a lot of time to think about these things…
